Nonrelativistic and Relativistic Contributions to Spin-Momentum Locking and Spin Photogalvanic Effect in an Altermagnetic Multiferroic

Giuseppe Cuono, Subhadeep Bandyopadhyay, Amar Fakhredine +6

Altermagnetic multiferroics provide a platform where non-relativistic spin-momentum locking (SML) coexists with relativistic spin textures, yet disentangling their different origin…
